Immobilization of alkaline protease was investigated by absorbing the enzyme on adsorbents. Alkaline protease was adsorbed on silica gel selected as a carrier to immobilize the enzyme. In this study, properties of the immobilized enzyme were compared with those of the soluble enzyme. 1) The optimum pH (10.0) of the enzyme was not changed, but the activity was increased at alkaline pH by immobilization. 2) The optimum temperature of the immobilized enzyme was shifted from 50$^{\circ}C$ to 45$^{\circ}C$, while the temperature-activity Profile became broader than those of the soluble enzyme. 3) The pH stability of the immobilized enzyme was significantely increased at pH 4.0, althouth it did not change in the neutral and alkaline pH region. 4) The heat stability of the enzyme was enhanced in the temperature range of 55$^{\circ}C$∼65$^{\circ}C$ by the immobilization. 5) The immobilized enzyme retained 40％ of its original activity after repetitive use for 6 times. 6) The enzyme stability was greately improved for a prolonged storage at 4$^{\circ}C$.

In order to investigate the Phenomenon of Acid Precipitation, pH value and Anions of Fluroide, chloride, nitrite, phosphate, bromide, nitrate and sulfate were measured from the acid precipitations sampled around 7 districts over seoul area during period of 9 months from January till September, in 1985. From the distribution of pH value gatnered, acid precipitations were noticed during period from January till Aprill, and from as of April 22nd, situation gradually recovered. The average pH value till April showed comparatively low, ranging 4.0-5.0. The pH value of 4.5-5.6 in average over whole year reaches to similar level of those in Japan. Anion analysis revealed that the main factor of pH value in Seoul district attribute mainly to the sulfate ion and nitrate ion. Moreover, these Phenomena of acid precipitation in Seoul area appeared to concentrate on certain districts, and they are slowly moving toward other directions due to such factors as wind-velocity and directions.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the objectification of coloring matter abstraction of the way to natural dye by cathamus flower. Watersoluble carthamin in the dyeing cathamus flower was removed for the fastness of dyeing and only insoluble carthamon was abstracted which came by solvent such as Sodium hydroxide(NaOH) Potassium hydroxide(KOH) Sodium carbonate(Na2CO3)and Potassi-um carbonate(K2CO3) Carthamon made abstract essence from a carthamus flower out of the pH6, pH7, pH9, pH11, solvent and by using a UV/VIS Spectra according to the change of pH. Silk dyes with solution abstract carthamon and it was treated by 5 kinds of mordant. The table of surface-colors was measured by the number of dyeing the color of silk dyed and by the kind of mordant which treated with and the dyeing was evaluated by measuring Color Fastness to Light and Washing.

This investigation was carried out to study the influence of pH and heat treatment on the ginsenosides in the white ginseng extract. Changes in ginsenosides (Rb1, Rb2, ,Rc, Rd) and free sugar were measured by the peak area variation of HPLC chromatogram during 25 hours heat treatment at the various level of pH. It was found that :(1) The peak areas of Rb1. Rb2, Rc and Rd on the HPLC chromatogram were decreased remarkably below pH 4.0 and more decrease was found as the temperature and heating time increased. (2) Those of glucose and arabinose were increased remarkably. It is considrered that the increase of glucose and the formation of arabinose result from the hydrolysis of ginsenoside( Rb1, Rb2, Rc, Rd) linked with sugars.

Lipoxygenase activities of three cultivars of black rice (Chindo, Suwon-415, Yongkeum-1) were determined using an oxygen polargraphic method to measure oxygen uptake. Studies at different pH levels revealed that the optimum pH was about pH 7.0 for Suwon-415 and pH 7.5 for Chindo and Yongkeum-1. The specific activities of Chindo, Suwon-415 and Yongkeum-1 at optimal pH were 41.0, 27.3, and 29.6 unit/mg-protein, respectively. In all the cultivars, there was an increase in the activity with increase in reaction temperature. Enzyme activity was tested at different concentrations of the substrate. The resulting $K_m$ and $V_{max}$ values of Chindo, Suwon-415, and Youngkeum-1 were 0.059, 0.050, and 0.066 mM and 2020, 2283, and 1616 unit/g-grain, respectively. Enzyme activity decreased at all storage temperatures(25, 4, and $-40^{\circ}C$).

This study using yogurt of food in order to increase the conservativeness and stability of lactobacillus, to be deliciously flavored and give it visual differential effect, were described regarding making the preparing method of double matrix capsulation in food industries. Our study group was especially made to soft and moisture cream using 5wt% of sucrose ester emulsifier as first capsulation. Double matrix capsulation was formed with the best stabilized bead type capsules when it blended 1:3 ratio of chitosan and alginate. The bead diameter size was about 2.5~4mm (mean diameter: 3mm). Activity of lactobacillus containing cream for depending on various pH variations showed that alkalinity ($pH=10.3{\pm}0.3$) condition was higher than acidity ($pH=4.3{\pm}0.3$) and neutrality ($pH=7.12{\pm}0.2$) conditions. After a month, it also was certified to the activity of lactobacillus in incubated at $37^{\circ}C$ in culture medium. As application of food industry, we developed the containing lactobacillus capsule and 5 colored kinds of double matrix capsulation in yogurt cream. As for above mentioned those results, one of tool to stabilize the living lactobacillus, doubled matrix capsulation greatly be expected to contribute to food industry. Furthermore, it can be expected to apply the drug delivery system (DDS) to active ingredients of stabilizing technologies at drug and cosmetic industries.

Polyphosphazene-bound Wittig reagents such as $[NP(OC_6H_5)_{1.7}(OC_6H_4P(Ph)_2$=$CHCH_2CH_2CH_3)_{0.3}]_n$ were synthesized by treating $[NP(OC_6H_5)_{1.7}(OC_6H_4Br)_{0.3}]_n$ with n-butyllithium, diphenylchlorophosphine, and n-butyl iodide. Polymeric reactions were carried out according to the reaction conditions with cyclic primers such as [$N_3P_3(OC_6H_5)_5(OC_6H_4P(Ph)_2$)]. The desired alkene and polymer-bound phosphine oxide were prepared successfully by the reaction of polyphosphazene-bound Wittig reagents with benzophenone.

The rate constants for the hydrolysis of 2-phenyl-4H,5H-3-methyl-3-thiazolinium perchlorate(PTP) derivatives were detemined by the use of ultraviolet visible spectrophotometer in water. The rate equations which could be applied over a wide pH ranges were obtained. On the basis of rate equation, hydrolysis product analysis, general base catalysis, and substituent effect, a plausible mechanism of the hydrolysis is proposed: Below pH 4.0, the reaction is initiated by addition of water, while above pH 9.0, Michael type nucleophilic addition takes place. In the pH range of $4.5{\sim}8.0$, these two reactions appear to occur competitively.

The determining the appropriate dosage of coagulant is very important, because dosage of coagulant in the coagulation process for wastewater affects removing the amount of pollutants, cost, and producing sludge amount. Accordingly, in this study, in order to determine the optimal PAC dosage in the coagulation process, CCD (Central composite design) was used to proceed experimental design, and the quadratic regression models were constructed between independent variables (pH, influent turbidity, PAC dosage) and each response variable (Total coliform, E.coli, PSD (Particle size distribution) (< $10{\mu}m$), TP, $PO_4$-P, and $COD_{cr}$) by the RSM (Response surface methodology). Also, Considering the various response variables, the optimum PAC dosage and range were derived. As a result, in order to maximize the removal rate of total coliform and E.coli, the values of independent variables are the pH 6-7, the influent turbidity 100-200 NTU, and the PAC dosage 0.07-0.09 ml/L. For maximizing the removal rate of TP, $PO_4$-P, $COD_{cr}$, and PSD(< $10{\mu}m$), it is required for the pH 9, the influent turbidity 200-250 NTU, and the PAC dosage 0.05-0.065 ml/L. In the case of multiple independent variables, when the desirable removal rate for total coliform, E.coli, TP, and $PO_4$-P is 90-100 % and that for $COD_{cr}$ and PSD(< $10{\mu}m$) is 50-100 %, the required PAC dosage is 0.05-0.07 ml/L in the pH 9 and influent turbidity 200-250 NTU. Thus, if the influent turbidity is high, adjusting pH is more effective way in terms of cost since a small amount of PAC dosage is required.
